Sorry - Apology from "Samarai Jenn" about the entire fake story

[Happy Chicken Mama]

I think that no one should be sorry for how kind and compasionate they were.

Thank you for being such great and supportave backyard chickeners!

I think that you all are great and that you are all shocked is a good thing. It means that you really cared.

I read some of the thread before and it made me glad and excited to get to know such a great group of people. I think crazzzzzzzzy chicken ladies (& guys) are the best!

It seems that a lot of people (including myself) are on their farms or homes and are a bit isolated. This site seems to be a conection to safe people who have a common interest and love. I think that may be why it feels like sucha a violation. I could be wrong... Some of us (me) have chosen isolation.

You guys are great. You should keep praying for these people... even if your prayers are a little angry for a while.

I was in disbelief when there was a No to us doing the afghans for triplets also. So glad there was a no, Our BYC Crocheters work hard .

This was my thought exactly. I happen to catch that there was a "no thanks, I am getting too much stuff" when it came to the crochet blankets. I thought that was SO odd, because I make crochet baby blankets and they are the MOST special gift one can get. A gift made with such love and from someone's own hands.​

Michael Josephson, of the Josephson Institute of Ethics, tells a story that goes something like this:

A man gave a hundred dollars to a woman who told a long, sad story about her baby having cancer and how she had no money for treatments.

When he got home, his son said what a sucker he was, and how he didn't know if this was really true. That night on the news, there was a story about a con woman who used her baby to bilk money out of strangers, and it was the same woman. The son called his father and said "Didn't we tell you, Dad? The woman stole your money. Sorry about the bad news." The father answered "This is great news! It means that the baby doesn't have cancer."

Viewed this way, this is good news. There are no dead babies.

Thank you Cyn! It felt like you hugged me and wiped my tears away. I can not believe someone could be this sick

Seem's to me that whatever havoc & chaos "Luke" was planning to get satifaction out of has actually brought the caring folks at BYC closer together.

That must really diminish "Luke's" satisfaction.

Exactly! That's what we thought too! I know I thought it b/c I had twins, and I was grateful for everything we got! I especially love handmade stuff. But I know that some people don't, so when the initial answer was no, I thought well that's odd, but some people genuinely don't like handmade things. Then "she" said I don't want anyone to think that I'm being rude, it's just that people are sending us soooo much stuff already. (paraphrasing) I thought wow they must have a much larger support group than we did...that's great

I thought the same things about the names, when I read the name Elijah I thought oh thats a unique and pretty name, but the others were kind of 'normal', then again some people name their multiples different things on purpose, so what do I know.

I just cannot believe this....I'm in shock.

I am still thinking about "him". Why would a person do this? About such a precious thing...as babies and losing one. I've had a friend once who lost a baby and it was horrible. The funeral was a nightmare for me and as I read this thread I was thinking about that poor babies body being buried. It's different when an old one dies...those tears are def. different. They lived their lives happy and old. But if anyone has ever seen a newborn infant in a coffin it really makes you emotional. I'm crying now!
